I recently updated my Malwarebytes to version 2.00.2.1012, database version v.2014.03.04.09. When I went to start a scan the program starts to check for updates but immediately there is a message which states "Malwarebytes has stopped working - close program"

I tried copying the Malwarebytes file from another computer which did complete the update but I get told I do not have admin rights - which I do.

I tried using Malwarebytes Chameleon and that has not worked either. Program just stops working.

Is this the pro version? If it is the trial version uninstall and re-install the program.

Here is some information about appcrash. If this doesn't help with the problem, come back and we'll run some more scans to see if we can get it working.

Hello and welcome to GeekPolice.Net My name is Dave. I will be helping you out with your particular problem on your computer.

1. I will be working on your Malware issues. This may or may not solve other issues you have with your machine.
2. The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine.
3. If you don't know or understand something, please don't hesitate to ask.
4. Please DO NOT run any other tools or scans while I am helping you.
5. It is important that you reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
6. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
7. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

If you can't access the internet with your infected computer you will have to download and transfer any programs to the computer you're using now and transfer them to the infected computer with a CD-RW or a USB storage device. I prefer a CD because a storage device can get infected. If you use a storage device hold the shift key down while inserting the USB storage device for about 10 secs. You will also have to transfer the logs you receive back to the good computer using the same method until we can get the computer back on-line.

I'm just trying to paste the mbar log and post it but keep getting this message:
New members are not allowed to post external links or emails for 7 days.

There must have been a link included in the log.
Did you run SlimCleaner Plus?

SlimCleaner Plus wouldn't go any further unless I paid $39.99

Please try this. It's not the same name but will probably do the job.

Download CCleaner Slim and save it to your Desktop - Alternate download link

When the file has been saved, go to your Desktop and double-click on ccsetupxxx_slim.exe
Follow the prompts to install the program.

* Double-click the CCleaner shortcut on the desktop to start the program.
* Click on the Options block on the left, then choose Cookies.
* Under Cookies to Delete, highlight any cookies you would like to retain permanently
* Click the right arrow > to move them to the Cookies to Keep window.
* Go into Options > Advanced uncheck Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours
* Click Cleaner on the left then Run Cleaner on the right to run the program.
* Important: Make sure that ALL browser windows are closed before selecting Run Cleaner

Caution: Only use the Registry feature if you are very familiar with the registry.
Always back up your registry before making any changes. Exit CCleaner after it has completed it's process.

So, the problem is that MBAM won't update or that it won't run?

Both. As soon as I open MBAM, it starts looking for updates. After a few seconds I get the Windows message: "Malwarebytes has stopped working - close program". So it won't run either.

The only thing I can think of is getting some support from here.
